Wakeup call
“Did you wake me up by attacking me with a sock?”
Yeah. I paraphrase. It was something similar. Robin, who seemed very confused, was watching me playing on Ravelry, and it reminded him that somehow, somewhere….a sock played a part of his wakeup process.
Robin works graves. Sometimes he’s awake when I get home from work, sometimes not. I thought he was fairly lucid this evening, and decided to get an idea how much more of the foot I need to do before turning the heel. Approximately 1/2 an inch to an inch. Apparently he wasn’t as awake as I thought.
I’m forcibly keeping myself from digging out the Regia stashed downstairs, and a couple more pairs of needles. If that happens, these socks are never getting finished…and I distinctly remember hearing a sleepy “Yay…I get socks…” as I was leaving the bedroom with the pair presently on the needles. I admit it. I get ADD when I knit. Bad enough that one of my co-workers has decided to prompt me about Robin’s socks when she sees me…I don’t need to try and justify a distinctive lack of Project Monogamy. Particularly with another pair of socks. People can understand wanting to “switch it up” with a quick scarf, or pair of hand warmers…they aren’t quite so forgiving when it comes to a second pair of socks.
Luckily enough, Warcrack has been a little slow the past couple of days, otherwise I’d be feeling bad for not working on my character. Oooh yeah. I could be grinding faction rep, bay-bee! I’ve never been the best at grinding (uh…not as in “bump and…” for those of you not familiar with the term. It basically means working on a particular task for long periods of time, like killing a certain kind of enemy, or working on a quest chain, etc. Thus ends your gamer slang lesson of the day). I’ve been a good little gamer for the past couple of months. For those (admittedly 3 people) who will understand: I now have my Heroic Keys for Keepers of Time and The Sha’tar. Do I deserve a break? Damn skippy!
I still have Thrallmar, Cenarion Expedition, and Lower City rep to grind out.
It’s probably a blessing in disguise that my local YarnSmack Dealer is renovating right now…
